Other Information:	Ozumacin Chinantec is so named for originally it was a single town where that variant of Chinantec was spoken. In the 1950s a small group of people established another town lower in the valley to the east, the town of Ayotzintepec. After that another group of people formed a town in the valley to the west - Santiago Progreso. So there are now three towns that speak the very same variant. There is a recording of the Gospel of John and I will try to find the website where that is posted and forward it to you. Here is the link to the Gospel of John recording. I should have said explicitly in my previous message that the Ozumancin Chinantec language is now spoken in 3 towns: Ozumacin, Ayotzintepec and Progreso. God Bless. http://www.scriptureearth.org/00i-Scripture_Index.php?sortby=lang&name=chz&ISO_5digits=00000
